They also explore specific deals, such as Apple's new arrangement with Google to power Siri and Snap's collaboration with Perplexity. The episode touches on the economic impact of AI, the ongoing US-China AI race, and investor sentiments. The upcoming challenges and opportunities in the AI sector, both in the US and China, are considered in-depth, alongside broader market implications.

After the break, Dan and Guy are joined by Shannon Murphy, Head of Research at iConnections.
